Wireless Internet is quickly emerging as a reality, thanks to the fast
evolution of many wireless access technologies. Convergence of
heterogeneous wireless networks and the next generation Internet
further brings wireless Internet into a variety of application
scenarios which provide mobile users with a wide range of highly
demanding services, such as high speed data and real-time multimedia
delivery. On the other hand, it is of critical importance to obtain a
fundamental understanding of wireless Internet architectures and
explore new services and solutions in order to achieve the ultimate
goal of wireless Internet access anytime anywhere.

The Wireless Internet Conference (WICON) will continue to serve as a
premier international forum to discuss novel research results related
to the emerging Wireless Internet. WICON 2008 is soliciting both
academic research and industry practice papers. Papers solicited in
the WICON 2008 span a wide range of areas of interest including but
not limited to:
